Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are technologies which have the potential to transform the way we work, communicate, and experience things from manufacturing, engineering, and architecture to education, healthcare, arts, entertainment and culture. This report maps the VR industry in Europe and analyses the dynamic VR and AR ecosystem.Wed, 7 Feb 2018 09:53:13 -0800Equivalent Fractions - Android Apps on Google Playhttps://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=1362778
Create equivalent fractions by dividing and shading squares or circles, and match each fraction to its location on the number line. Check your work, and use the table feature to capture results and look for patterns. Got a particular value for which you&rsquo;d like to make equivalent fractions? Use &ldquo;Build Your Own&rdquo; mode.Originally something similar to this app was developed by Illuminations, a project of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, and erased from the Google Play list some years ago. It is not currently available as an online activity along with many other free math resources for teachers and students at http://illuminations.nctm.orgThis is a rebuilt version from scratch dedicated to the Math Forum staff all of whom have recently lost their jobs at NCTM.Thu, 1 Feb 2018 01:28:04 -0800Hairdressing Traininghttps://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=1359767

The goal of this textbook is not to make you an expert. True expertise in any field is a years-long endeavor. Here I will survey some of the basic topics of chemistry. This survey should give you enough knowledge to appreciate the impact of chemistry in everyday life and, if necessary, prepare you for additional instruction in chemistry. Throughout each chapter, I present two features that reinforce the theme of the textbook&mdash;that chemistry is all around you. The first is a feature titled, appropriately, &ldquo;Chemistry Is Everywhere.&rdquo; Chemistry Is Everywhere&rdquo; focuses on the personal hygiene products that you may use every morning: toothpaste, soap, and shampoo, among others. These products are chemicals, aren&rsquo;t they? Ever wonder about the chemical reactions that they undergo to give you clean and healthy teeth or shiny hair? I will explore some of these chemical reactions in future chapters. But this feature makes it clear that chemistry is, indeed, everywhere. The other feature focuses on chemistry that you likely indulge in every day: eating and drinking. In the &ldquo;Food and Drink App,&rdquo; I discuss how the chemistry of the chapter applies to things that you eat and drink every day. Carbonated beverages depend on the behavior of gases, foods contain acids and bases, and we actually eat certain rocks. (Can you guess which rocks without looking ahead?) Cooking, eating, drinking, and metabolism&mdash;we are involved with all these chemical processes all the time. These two features allow us to see the things we interact with every day in a new light&mdash;as chemistry.Tue, 9 Jan 2018 13:46:19 -0800Fabrication Methods 2https://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=1357738

Anatomy and Physiology is a dynamic textbook for the yearlong Human Anatomy and Physiology course taught at most two- and four-year colleges and universities to students majoring in nursing and allied health. Anatomy and Physiology is 29 chapters of pedagogically effective learning content, organized by body system, and written at an audience-appropriate level. The lucid text, strategically constructed art, inspiring career features, and links to external learning tools address the critical teaching and learning challenges in the course.Tue, 9 Jan 2018 12:52:58 -0800College Physicshttps://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=1357730
